Gareth Bale – 6
Never really got going in the game and was a little isolated on the right as most of the creativity was coming down the left through Di Maria.
Karim Benzema – 8
Missed a couple of chances early on but made up for that and some by bagging two goals in quick succession, before being the man sacrificed when Ramos was sent off.
Cristiano Ronaldo – 7
Worked hard but this was not a Ronaldo masterclass at the Bernabeu, although the Portugal captain did win the penalty and then convert it confidently.
Substitutions:
Raphael Varane – 6
Came on for Benzema after Ramos’ red card and had the unenviable task of trying to keep Barca out, although this was another good learning curve for the youngster.
